There's now a phenomenon where everyone's (including you) political beliefs are now visible to everyone within a 1KM radius, how fucked are you? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Think of it like a video game HUD where there's just text floating above a person's head where you see all their political beliefs, including the degree of bigotry (if any), or whether or not the person believes in the use of violence to acheive polical goals, basically every little detail that would accurately depict people's political beliefs. Your beliefs are also visible to others. This effect has 1KM radius, including people above and below you.

So, how fucked are you?

(Think of all the authorities in your area that can see your beliefs, including the beliefs regarding the recent incident...)

Not fucked at all. I agree with my beliefs, and I'm tired of being misunderstood. Having them be visible would be vindicating. I just want to be friends with everyone at the end of the day.

Too bad there are right wing nutjobs that want you dead.

Hopefully there aren't any of those within 1KM of you.

I don't go through life like this. I think if I met a rightwing nutjob, I could get along with them or at least bond over something not related to politics. I had to do this when I worked in an office, too. People are still people.
